I've been looking for a sausage recipe that uses horseradish and am not having much luck. Has anyone here ever used horseradish while making sausage? Any suggestions? I have no experience at experimenting with ingredients and don't want to waste any meat trying and failing with numerous attempts at getting the flavour right.

Post up if you find anything that tastes good...might be more of a dipping sauce, I used to make horseradish until I started having a hard time finding the root..anyway I found it got old and too mellow in the fridge although freezing sausage would probably preserve the zip...

I've been sitting on this one, should get around to trying it soon: http://youhavetocookitright.blogspot.ca/2012/05/wild-boar-and-horseradish-sausage.html

Unrelated, but I just made up a batch of Hank's juniper & sage recipe, it's awesome!

I've seen that one too. I think I'd go without the milk though. I've done a bit of research on what goes well with what. These pages are pretty good for those interested in what spices compliment eachother.

I'm thinking that something with horseradish, thyme, some kind of stronger cheese, maybe chives and/or apple sounds good. Some beet might add a bit of flavour and an interesting deep colour to the sausage. I guess I need to go shoot another deer in order to experiment. Any other suggestions?

Horseradish has long been used to spice many ground meat products including sausage. No reason not to try it out. Fresh horseradish root has almost incomparable flavor. Be careful where you plant it though- it can take over a garden!
